Restaurant of the Year & Best Regional Restaurant of the Year 2010

Riding on a few coattails here …..

Cutler and Co has just been named Restaurant of the Year (out of 400 restaurants listed) at The Australian Gourmet Traveller Restaurant Awards.  Well done Pascale!!  If you check out their website go to images and click away at some of the beautiful images of Pascale’s interior design work, particularly the bar and the lighting.  It’s the mix of materials often contrary that somehow all tie in together.

And the Royal Mail Hotel at Dunkeld has just been named Best Regional Restaurant of the Year. 

Royal Mail Hotel at Dunkeld & Cutler & Co

And we did the signage at both.  Window decals for Cutler and Co, view project here.  No project for Royal Mail Hotel, no pics either, all pre digital, just this wee post.

Royal Mail Hotel at Dunkeld designed by Simm Design.  This signage would have been installed in 1997.  It’s holding up pretty well some 13 years later. 

This video shows a typical day in the restaurant.  The greenhouse, landscape, orchard, large chooks pen and attention to detail from garden to table is inspiring.  A few good shots of the external branding we did here.

Vixtel | Part One - External Building ID

Vixtel cames to us via a web enquiry, nice people straight up and one of the easiest jobs given the scope of work internally and externally. First Stage | external building id comprising of one large external sign mounted to fascia, material base white folded acrylic with 3D red and black acrylic letters. The folded acrylic and return creates greater impact and lifts the quality of the signage so too the concealment of fixings which affords greater prominence to the red and black Vixtel logo. It's the finer detail that counts.

Designed Blinds Australia | External Signage

I have broken up the internal and external signage in to two separate projects, see below for internal signage. Signage is often underrated in terms of completing a retail fitout but the difference is often telling. It is the icing on the cake. Selecting the right mix of signage is worth considering as there are many elements to choose from. Less is more, but better quality less, to deliver more visually, aesthetically and emotionally - creating the right feel for your business, ie: welcoming, friendly, inviting. Firstly choose quality base materials; important to the look and longevity of your signage. The best way to illustrate this is visually.So let's take a look at Designed Blinds new showroom in Richmond, Melbourne.
